I have a scenario where a cell has to be restricted based on the user input of another cell, also it should allow only Yes or No values.
ex:column A
column B
pending response
submitted
User should be allowed to enter a value in column B as "yes" or "No" only when column A has a value "Submitted"
I referred the thread to restrict entering the data [URL]...
However not able to add list as well.
I have created a Data Validation list in one of my spreadsheets which works fine. The list itself has no duplicates which is fine but when I select my entries in the other spreadsheet, I want to make sure they cannot select the same value twice.
I tried selecting "List" in data validation and using an AND with COUNTIF but it doesn't work.
=AND(Employees, countif($A$1:$A$20,A1)=1)
I am creating a Spreadsheet to work with a game which I am designing. I want to create a combat calculator which will generate formulas based on which class a person chooses to be, and their choice of weapons, armour and other equipment (makes things a lot easier for me to visualize). I have created the first worksheet which will act as the interface where users can input their character configurations and a second worksheet where all of the data is stored, included items and their values.
Assuming that on the interface I have cell A1 which will let the user select their class (Warrior, Archer, Sorcerer).
I also have cells B1 = Helmet, B2 = Body Armour, B3 = Leg Armour, B4 = Feet Armour, B5 = Hand Armour.
I would like cells B1:B5 to create a Data Validation based on the class which is selected in A1.
E.g.
IF A1="Warrior"; B1 = A list of Melee Helmets, B2 = A list of Melee Body Armour... etc
IF A1="Sorcerer"; B3 = A list of Magic Leg Armour...
I have managed to do this with the following formula, but only if the data is stored in the same sheet.
Cell B1
=IF(A1="Warrior", =meleeArmour1, =IF(A1="Archer", =rangeArmour1, =magicArmour1))
Cell B2
=IF(A1="Warrior", =meleeArmour2, =IF(A1="Archer", =rangeArmour2, =magicArmour2))
[NOTE]
=meleeArmour1 represents the range of cells where the Melee Helmets/Head Armour is stored.
=magicArmour2 represents the range of cells where the Magic Body Armour is stored.
The group cell names do not seem to work if they are on a different sheet, nor does it work if I replace the group cell name (=meleeArmour1) with the full formula (=Sheet2!A$1$:A$10$)
I have an excel spread sheet, Col I is a Date, Col K is a Date, Col P is a date and Col T is a text(with list validation) I have validation that if if T = "As is" and P <> I or K (which ever one has a value) then Error. Add Type:=xlValidateCustom, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:=xlBetween, Formula1:="=IF(T2= ""Accept as is"",(IF(P2=(IF(K2<>"""",K2,I2)),TRUE, FALSE)), TRUE)"
But if the user changes T to some other value then it is ok to change P, But they could put any value in that field. I Need to validate that P is a DATE also
I was trying to do a validation Greater than > 01/01/2007 but I can not do multiple validations on the same cell. How can I validate P is a date also
I'm using Microsoft Office 365 Home Premium. Although this file is saved with Excel 97-2003 - because the computers at work only use 2003.
OK - Here is my dilemma. I've been creating a spread(work)sheet for work. One of the fields that needs to be entered by the manager doing the papwerwork is 'Date'. I currently have the Data-Validation set as follows because the paperwork being done is for the yesterday:
Code:
=TODAY()-1
I have the Error Alert set to Warning prompting the manager to ensure the date is correct (sometimes a mid-shift audit is being done, so the actual current date has to be used). Now, what I am wanting to do is to also set it that if the manager set's the date for a future date, I would like Excel to also either do a Warning or a Critical displaying a message that future dates cannot be used.
I know this may sound trivial, but with this paperwork, dates are extremely critical and vital in the event of an investigation for cash shortages etc.
I have uploaded the excel sheet to my domain, which I can provide a link to - either here or in a private message - but I do not want to do so unless I know that it's ok to do. If so, I will reply with a link to the location of the Excel file.
On a worksheet I want 4 cells to have validation, when a selection in the first cell is made this limits the choice in the second, when the second is selected then the third is limited by 1 and 2 and the forth will be limited by 1,2, and 3.
In the attached example data , if I choose a Region, I have a choice of Countries. When I choose a Country I am limited to valid Cities and when I have chosen a City then a list of applicable Agents will be available. I have used NamedRanges for a two dimensional lookup but for four and my list will be far bigger than the sample, I do not fancy maintaining numerous NamedRanges.
In MS Excel, I find that when the zoom is dropped to 50% the fonts in the
list become unreadable. Is there anyway that the fonts in the list have the
ability to have their own formats?
I need to edit multiple validations in a worksheet. There are over 990 validation for each month. I want to change the word in the sentence. Example: April to May. Right now I have to edit each one seperatly. I have tried a macro but it changes to whole sentence. Find and replace do not allow editing in a validation.

The users enail address (column K) may be on the list for several times, but I need to make sure that there is at least a 7 days pause between sending the first mail and the second, depending on the visit date (column G).If there are less than 7 days between two entries with the same email address, the user is not qualified for taking another survey.
I was thinking to write an IF formula which returns either 1 or 0 and then let conditional formatting highlight and HIDE the row via a VBA loop.
I have made a spreadhseet that track what games an official referees (sheet 1), what games they are touch judge 1 for (Sheet 2) and what games they are touch judge 2 for (sheet 3).
Sheet 4 then adds all these up for me and tells me as an good approximate estimate how much each official should get paid in way of expenses.
Simple enough so far.
I have a list of 3 letter codes on sheet 4 for each official that I put in the matrix of games. It's using these 3 letter codes that it adds it all up. This works fine
How can I get it to tell me if any 3 letter codes entered into the matrix (Sheet 1!D4:CD82) Do not match my list (Sheet 4!A5:A71). (an error detection system if you like).
To make it more interesting I would like it to ignore blank cells (games not played yet).
I'm not bad on excel formulas, but I can't get my head around how to do this.
I have is a list of data with headers
mold # casting date manufacturer condition
and have about 150 entries for each column.
What i want to do is to store data to the next available row in that list by entering "w x y z" in columns A1 B1 C1 D1.
Then when i have new data ww xx yy zz, i again want to enter it in columns A1 B1 C1 D1 and automatically have it stored beneath my last entry at the bottom of the original list.
I've created a worksheet with a number of dropdowns / data validations. Now the thing with these validations is the source range apparently has to be in the same sheet (well it can be another one but much simpler if in the same). I've just realized I created them in the wrong place, so need to erase them. Pressing the delete key isnt working though, they're still there. I could right-click delete but that then requires one to move cells up/right etc and that could mess with my formulas.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am using a modified version of Debra Dalgleish's filtercopy macro in which 3 data validations are being used (she used 1 in her downloadable example ProductList. zip) and it works just fine when the validations are used in order as they should be. However, in looking over the data I am trying to present in my report I think it would be very valuable to use the first and third validations at times (skipping the 2nd) to discern information in that way. Long story short, I can't seem to get this to work and don't know if it's even possible because I'm not a VBA expert.

On a tab, i have one column where information is entered. what should be entered is based on a dropdown list (which i have setup on a validation). the other thing that should be allowed to be entered is a an 8 digit number. when something else is entered, i need to have a popup message appear to tell the user to fix the error.
I have no idea how to effectively enter in the restriction in VBA for this.
Below is the VBA i have started:
1. The problem is that if one of the drop-downs is chosen, then i get this error message (because the dropdown list has text that is more than 8 characters in length).
2. The one other problem is that if the cell is left blank, i still receive the popup message. how do i avoid this from showing up.
3. I am also looking to do something like this for a range of cells (from F5:F100).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change()
Dim stue As String
stue = "f5"
Application.EnableEvents = True
If Len(Range("f5")) 8 Then
MsgBox "there is an error in cell " & stue & " "
End If
End Sub
this are function which button needs to be able to do after clicking on it.
• When the value of only one of Description or Unit/Price is entered, a warning message appears.
• When the message is confirmed, return to the entry status for the new data.
• When the values of both Description and Unit/Price are entered, save the values in the list of product (worksheet Product), and increase Product No. by 1 and erase values from NewProduct worksheet this is the screen how it should look but button which should be able to do all the thing above at once is called List Entry

after creating this function all the values from the table product need to be update into another table which sould look like that:

Is there anyone how could write code which will do thing above?

I need to create a Drop Down Menu that gets it's data from another group of cells. I have done this before but it has been sometime ago and now I can't remember.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm loosing the validations that I set up such as having a dropdown list and so on when I save and reopen the file. First I thought I didn't save it, but notice it happening consistently.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have search the site for a possible solution for my problem. And that is: how to create multiple lists using validation – depending on each other.
The scenario is. I have a data sheet that contains a list of alien plant species. The species have different methods of treatments (some do have the same). Each treatment might have one or more herbicide products that can be used and with each herbicide a certain application mixture.
I have used validation to create the pick list of the plants, the next pick list should be the treatment for the selected plant species and the 3rd list the product and then last list the mixture.
All of these lists should only list the information that is relevant to the selected plant specie, in the first list.
I have a problem in applying Data Validation on cells containing Formula. Eg: cell A1 has a value 10 and cell B1 has a value 15. i have a formula "=A1+B1" in cell C1. If i apply a Data validation to the cell C1 so as to accept values only in the range of 0 to 10, the cell C1 is still accepting values grater than 10 when i change the values in the cells A1 and B1.

I currently have a spreadsheet that has a total of 20 workbooks in all. Each workbook contains between 5 and 100 rows and between 20-40 columns. Each column is a different category that I have data on for that particular tool manufacturer. What I want to do is create a front workbook where I can do all my searching. I would like the user to impute data into a search cell, hit a macro button, and have the full row that data was in be shown to them. Depending on which criteria they search for, the value may be found at the start, middle or end of the row.
Also, like I said the number of columns differs between each workbook. I would also like it to print out the categories for that workbook so that the person inputing the data knows what all the different numbers are when they come up.
Each workbook is a different tool manufacturer that my company has a tool from so there should never be duplicate data. The problem is that after I finish the spreadsheet, I am turning it over to the floor workers and they will have the ability to add/change any information in any workbook. If a mistake is made and different workbooks have the same data, I would like it to print out the category and data from the first workbook, then print the category and data from the next workbook and so on. The Category headers make up the first 2 rows of each sheet.
On Sheet 1 I have Data Validation Lists set up. On Sheet 2 I have the information populating from what is entered on Sheet 1, only problem is...when I don't have anything entered in the cell(s) on Sheet 1 then the cell(s) on Sheet 2 reflect 0. I would like the cell(s) to remain blank if nothing is entered on Sheet 1.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow to populate data between 2 linked file based on the Dropdown Validations?
View 10 Replies View RelatedBasically at the moment our static data group use a generic sheet which lists all possible field variables. However, what I want to do is design something which only shows the fields that need to be filled out (ie if the field is shown it needs to be input).
Once the form is filled out it will get saved and sent via email, where it is then printed out and input by our data group. One way I thought about approaching this was to have 18 sheets which are hidden, and which are then selected when a report type is filled out. The other way would be to have IF statements but I think that would get complicated on the one sheet. Just really looking at ideas at this stage.... For example there are 30 fields on the sheet that we use now, but some reports may only need 5 of these fields - I therefore need to "hide" the remaining 25...
hello. i'm new to excel and i'm really hoping for some serious help here. i have the basics down however i'm really stumped at this point. Let me try to explain my worksheet. the worksheet has a sheet for data which is used for drop list values in the new patient template sheet. the new patient template which is just that a blank entry sheet that the user duplicates and adds a new patient to the worksheet to track the visits made by medical staff. there could be over a hundred new patient sheets (each named by the patient) at any given time.
here is what i need help with: my sheet is setup on a monthly basis so each patient has a total of 4 - 5 weeks listed with entries for everytime a nurse visits that patient. what i need to know is how to search the cell entries for the first time a visit occurred and the date it occurred and this needs to be broken down by the 1st of the month - the 15th and then again for the 16th - the end of month for every patient sheet in the workbook. the ranges are not together that i need to search for example f14:f20, i14:i20, f35:f41 and so on for the first 15 days of the month. this all needs to happen like in a macro or somehow automatically.
I have a percentage in R3.
If I make an entry in D13 then I want the R3 to be duplicated into C27 otherwise C27 should be 0.
I need to consolidate these two lists of data into one list.
First set is just a basic list of individuals with their data.
Second set is multiple entries for those same individuals. Each entry shows a subscription to a programme. The final single sheet should have one row per individual which shows all of the programmes they are subscribed to.
See attached, example sheet.
The real list is 3000 IDs, so need some kind of formula to do this.
I am trying to create a drop down list that when selected will display data in the 10 rows below and 4 columns, so a total of 40 cells. I would like the data to be based on the selection in the drop down list.
The data looks like this,
RequirementsQtyResourcesQty
Level 1 Sentinel10Level 1 Sentinel105
Level 2 Sentinel10Level 2 Sentinel167
Level 3 Sentinel10Level 3 Sentinel156
Level 1 Banga20Level 1 Banga401
Level 2 Banga20Level 2 Banga307
Level 4 Banga20Level 4 Banga0
i have 27 different combinations of the above list with up to 10 different rows. I have a label for each one, but i cannot get the rows below my drop down list to display the proper values base don the selection in the drop down list.
Basicaly what I am trying to accomplish is the use of a single cell to enter the values 1 thru 60, so starting at e2 for instance, if I enter the number 1 then cell f2 will populate with a 1, if I were to enter the number 18 then the cell w2 would populate with an 18. So the range of cells that need to populate in this example would be (f2:BM2) for row 2. Furthermore if I were to enter a -1 or a -18 in cell e2 then those numbers would be eliminated from the appropriate cells on row 2. The next 299 rows would need to perform the same way for a total of 300 user input rows.
The way that I'm imagining e2 would behave in the example would be...type a 1 then enter....18 then enter....31 then enter and so on. Columns f thru bm would locked and unselectable....so a tab should send me back to a3.
Reasoning.... this is a simple scoring system based on 60 codes and data integrity is very important and I want to eliminate as much human error as possible. I will be setting autofilters and such later on.
I am attaching a screencapture as well.
I want to lock cell after cell in a worksheet after data entry. Entering the data is what drives the locking of the cells. All cells with data are locked but those without are unlocked.
